control cables are used for transmitting signal

 control cables are used for transmitting signals that are necessary for measuring, controlling, regulating or monitoring on ships.

The following criteria should have proper consideration to define the suitable cable type:

• Occurrence of maximum voltage load
• Allowable voltage drop
• Power to be transmitted, current carrying capacity
• Permissible or necessary short-circuit admittance
• Electrical protection
• Mechanical stress/influence
• Thermal stress/influence
• Chemical stress/influence
• Standards or specifications to be followed
